Conception (CONCEPTION)

Conception Masterpiece Theater

That is Collette, the Maiden of Aquarius.

A virtuous girl everyone in town knows about.

She runs the bakery for her grandfather who became sick.

Admirable and innocent.

She knows nothing of corruption in the world.

"Babies are delivered to the cabbage field by storks!"

She's like everyone's little sister!

And you're gonna corrupt that girl to your liking!

Like stepping into undisturbed snow.

Like painting on a brand new canvas.

Twisted urges going haywire, full of desire, crotches on fire!

Check it out! Like that?

This is painful.

It may be in order to cleanse the Impurities in this world,

but this girl, full of innocence...

Must I do something like this... and that... to her?

Must I really be the one to defile her?

Hey, you've already done that to all the girls!

Actually, the Visitor who hunts down Impurities shouldn't be talking about defiling!

What should I do?

What are you concerned about, after all you've been through?!

Get your ass over there!

Heave-ho, heave-ho.

Collette.

I'll leave the flour here.

Oh, okay.

What should I do next?

Um... Is it really all right,

to have you helping out the bakery?

You must be busy being a Visitor.

Don't worry about it.

I'm helping out because I want to.

But...

Um...

You're helping me out...

because you want to make a Star Child with me, right?

Having you help me out for that reason...

Um... You're putting me in a difficult spot.

My hands are full running this bakery.

It's not like that!

I, uh...

Yeah, I want to help you, Collette!

You want to help me out?

You started working early in the morning, but still kept your smile.

People who bought your bread were smiling the same way.

I thought that was amazing.

That's why I want to help you.

Onii-san...

But you're making a Star Child with me, right?

No, I have no intention...

Well, I do, but...

It's far in the future.

That's after we understand each other...

You're an honest one, aren't you?

I'm relieved.

I'm looking forward to helping out!

I'm looking forward to it, too.

Baking is actually a lot of physical work.

It must have been tough doing it all on your own.

No, not at all!

It was my dream to bake bread!

Your dream?

Yes!

People will be happy to eat the bread I make.

That's the dream I've had since I was a child.

When I see the bright smile on Collette,

it makes me want to defile her!

I want to knead her up like dough in my hands.

Don't voice me without my permission!

They're baked well!

They look tasty!

Would you like to try one?

Here, open your mouth!

Come on, open your mouth!

Uh, but...

Hurry and eat it. You're embarrassing me.

Okay.

Ah!

How does it taste?

It's great!

That's good!

But bread can't satisfy me.

You're the one I want to feast on, Collette.

I told you not to do that!

I can't let my guard down even for a second.

Let's put out the freshly-baked bread.

Your customers are waiting.

Okay...

Not many customers today.

Maybe there's a huge bread sale going on somewhere.

No.

It's been like this ever since Grandpa fell ill.

Grandpa?

Yes.

He was a genius baker, and there were always long lines at the bakery.

But ever since I took over...

Maybe I don't have what it takes.

Collette...

Her smile was bright as an angel just a moment ago,

but now she's shivering like a puppy soaked in the rain!

Yeah, let's put a bigger frown on her face!

Mana, really, cut it out!

I'll be back.

Please, don't get in my way.

Collette...

Itsuki,

we came over.

Mahiru! Arie!

What's wrong?

What's wrong? Why can't we come to a bakery?

We heard that Itsuki-san was working here,

so we were wondering if we could do anything to help.

Oh, thank you!

Thank you for coming!

All right! We're gonna sell lots of bread today!

Y-Yes.

No customers...

Collette, is there any reason for this?

Everyone!

This is the bakery where Visitor-sama works!

Ah! Bakery!

Looks tasty!

There's crab-shaped bread!

Is there a scorpion bread?

Alfie! Why are you here?

We're always training and doing labyrinth explorations,

so I thought letting them see Visitor-sama's everyday life

would be a good exercise for them.

It's to cultivate an aesthetic sensibility.

Can I have some bread?

I'm hungry.

Visitor-sama!

Yeah, you can eat as much as you want.

Yay!

Here you go.

Huh? But...

You owe me one, 'kay?

You're a lifesaver, Alfie.

It's been so long since we've had so many customers!

I have to bake more bread!

About that, Collette...

Why aren't there any customers?

Is there a reason for it?

Hey, hey, hey!

How long are you gonna be doing business here?

I think it's a waste of time baking bread like this.

They're not going to sell anyway.

Who are you people?

"Huh? Who are you?" You say?

I will tell you if you don't know.

We are the number one bakery in this country.

Makers of Lunch Packs.

Lunch Packs...

The ones we see all the time?

Yeah! The ones you see all the time!

Our company was looking for prospective land for a new shop,

and this site happens to satisfy all our desired conditions.

So hurry and hand over this shop!

Collette-san, there's no point baking bread you can't sell, is there?

How about you start another business using the money from selling the bakery?

Well?

Well?

Well?

Well?

Well?

You guys are noisy!

We're eating bread, so be quiet!

Who are these kids?

We're not kids! I'm Cancer!

I'm Virgo!

Kids, adults are working now, so can you be quiet?

You old dudes need to be quiet!

Old dudes?!

Is it your job to scare that lady?

Getting paid to harass people? Losers.

I wonder what you old dudes' moms and dads would think of that.

I'm sure they would think they didn't raise you right!

Good thing we were Visitor-sama's children.

Good thing Alfie-san raised us!

We're glad that we don't have to turn into adults like them!

Dammit!

This isn't over!

Don't bully us!

What would your mom think?

Bye-bye!

They've grown strong.

It's amazing that they're not doing it out of malice.

Collette... No customers were showing up because of them?

Yes.

You can enjoy many flavors of Lunch Pack for a reasonable price,

so they're very popular.

Because of that, other bakeries are going out of business.
